Driven, knowledgeable, friendly. The three main components required out of each member of the Rebel team.
Bond Gilmer / President / Rebel Leader
Bond, as you can guess from his accent, was born in the overseas off roading world. He was raised in South Africa, where off roading is a way of life. When he moved to Australia, he remained in his desert and off road excursion element. He has crossed all major deserts in Australia, including the Simpson Desert, a 3-week trek surviving completely off what was packed in his Jeep. His rain forest excursions lasted 4 weeks; again, his Jeep being his only transport. Bond was first in Australia to import Jeep and Jeep accessories including LHD to RHD conversions. His stateside off road experience is just as impressive. He's wheeled everywhere from the Rubicon Trail to the Hammers, from Moab, Utah to the obstacle courses in Florida. Bond started Rebel Off Road to fill in the element lacking in today's corporate world: customer service.
Sandy Sausser - Lead Installer / Rebel Wrencher
Sandy was probably born with a wrench in his hand. Anyone that knows him personally can attest to Sandy's technical knowledge, deep background in the installation industry, and passion for all things four wheel drive. Over the years Sandy has been known for his "one off" builds. His most recent build / daily driver is a late model F250 Super Duty cut in half, tubed, and majorly shortened wheel base. 4x4 after 4x4, 2wd to 4wd, Sandy has either owned or built one of everything. He is trusted as our Lead Installer due to his attention to detail, fast turnaround, and consistently flawless work.
Jason Armstrong - Marketing Director / Rebel Keyboard Warrior
Jason joined our team early on as a part time web builder while he was going to college. Once he wrapped up his Public Relations degree from California State University, Fullerton, he joined our team full time as a customer service team member and online sales manager. Jason's duties include all outside communications, marketing ventures, and assisting in new product development and branding. Jason's off road industry experience started way back when he was less than a year old in his father's 1981 CJ5. He first learned to drive behind the wheel of a Jeep, and has been off roading every year of his life, including a few trips in the dirt while he was stationed in Japan in the US Navy. Since his early days bouncing around on leaf springs, Jason learned a thing or two about suspension, and now enjoys his fully coil overed 2008 Wrangler Unlimited X, nicknamed Party Barge.
Taylor Blagdon - Sales Manager / Beard Aficionado
If it wasn't for Taylor, Jason and Chris would have had a nervous breakdown by now. Might as well call Taylor, "lifesaver." He joined our sales / customer service team at the height of the off roading season, when the phones were ringing off the hook and we were struggling to keep up. His impressive resume and professional attitude made Taylor a perfect fit for how we do things here. His unique experience at a Jeep dealership for a 5 year span gives him an inside knowledge into the workings of a Jeeps lifespan: purchase, trail use, upgrade, and build completion. Taylor has proudly owned two Jeep Wrangler JK's, a 2-door and a 4-door, giving him great insight into making suspension systems work with two very different wheel bases.
Josh Reiter - Installer / Rebel Walk On Hero
Josh came to us when we absolutely needed a hero. We were bogged down with a 3 week installation backlog when he showed up with wrenches in his hands and saved the day. Since then he has continued to work hard and professionally build hardcore 4x4s. His industry experience dates back years, before the most recent JK model showed up on dealership lots. One day we'll learn a little more about Josh's past. He is, thankfully, quieter than the rest of our team. We may not know much about his outside hobbies, except for the BMX bike that showed up recently in the shop.
Chris Towles - Sales Specialist / Rebel Trailer Guy
What can we say about Chris. Possibly the biggest heart in the industry, and a sense of loyalty found no where else. He has been a friend for countless years and translates perfectly into an employee. If you have ever been out off roading with our team, you've met and trusted Chris. Sure, he trips on his own feet now and then, but it's part of the Chris "experience." Chris recently just picked up his first Jeep, a 2011 Unlimited X. It quickly grew up into one of our most recognizable builds, Storm Trooper.
Austin Foley - Installer / Rebel Mr. Fixit
You wouldn't know it, but the remote control world translates well into the "full scale" side of the off road industry. Austin was the go to man at a local hobby store when he began his internship here. Surprisingly, control arms, suspension articulation, gearing, etc all translates from the smaller rc world to the 4x4 aftermarket! Two seconds hanging around Austin and you instantly see the potential in this installer. His stellar attitude and sense of humor are invaluable here. He's grown from a young intern into a trusted member of our installation team.
Gabe Ramirez - Sales / Token FJ Cruiser
Gabe actually started with Rebel as a customer looking for a King suspension package for his FJ Cruiser. His attitude, product knowledge, and professionalism was enough to bring him to our side of the counter and make him a team member. In fact, Gabe volunteered to help man our 2013 King of the Hammers pit crew and help answer customers questions in our booth. Gabe is now a trusted member of our sales and tech support team bringing with him experience in Toyota, truck, and specfically FJ Cruiser performance and suspension accessories. It's not that he doesn't like Jeeps - he just wanted round headlights in something other than Chrysler.
Matt Moghaddam - Sales / Rebel Taco(ma)
Matt came to us with a very tough road ahead of him. Not because of any personal issues, but we are all Jeepers, and he is a hardcore truck fan. Whatever, solid front axles aren't for everyone. In all seriousness, he's a fantastic guy. Loads of personality, professionalism, and took to the Rebel way of doing things very quickly. He seems to be happiest when he's not on pavement - every photo on his Facebook page is him on a trail somewhere. When he's not enjoying long walks on the beach..... just kidding! He's an avid photographer and can rock some serious photoshop and photo processing. He's already a valuable part of our team and we look forward to his continued growth in our company.
Chris Paul - Installer / "Time is Money"
How dedicated is Chris? He wouldn't even look at the camera for his company photo - because "time is money!" Chris has been a target hire for years, he actually knew Rebel Leader Bond in "a prior life" (aka former 4x4 company.) Chris brings to the table years of experience as an off road installer. His career has made him lightening fast with extremely high quality results. His background is truck and Jeep meaning we can throw anything at him and expect it done right and ready to hit a trail. His first day our other Chris wrapped his tool box in shrink wrap - to the point where you couldn't tell what it was. Game on.
Chad Jones - Sales / Can't Stand Still
Chad brings over 12 years of off road industry experience to the Rebel team, making him one of our more "seasoned" staff members. He actually moved from Las Vegas to join us! While most of the Rebels drive somewhat street legal rigs to work and the trail, Chad is the proud papa of "Chadillac" a 100% custom chassis rock buggy complete with real "wire wheel" beadlocks and an Escalade front grille. You can't miss it. What do we mean by "can't stand still" you ask? He can't stand still. Chad has Red Bull in his veins. He actually prefers to stand most of the day a chair restricts him. His "active" lifestyle includes snowboarding and riding his Harley on weekends. He may not be able to sit down and sit still, but he can whip up a killer off road vehicle for his customers and do a better Bond impression than most!

Once your build is complete we arrange with the transportation company for return delivery.
We make sure to notify them of your vehicle's final dimensions including weight so they can anticipate a larger trailer. The vehicle is again photographed and inventoried prior to departure.

Testimonials
Scott
I ordered a pair of J.W. Speaker headlights for my Wrangler on a Thursday morning. Imagine my surprise when the UPS guy knocked on my door the very next day with my headlight delivery. I did not expect them to arrive until the following week. I'm not sure if this is typical for them; however, I was extremely impressed. I will definitely order from them in the future. Highly recommended.
Kevin
"I found Rebel Offroad when shopping for my RK lift and Taylor contacted me while he was on the Rubicon Trail to discuss my build goals for my 2012 JKUR. Taylor was outstanding and hands down the best in the business. He helped me decide on the lift I needed, the additional upgrades such as shocks, drive shaft and put together a package at a great price. Fast forward a few weeks later and he helped me through deciding on the best way to beef up my front D44 to handle the 37s I'm running. I will be Rebel customer for life and all future JK upgrades will be ordered through Taylor!"
Rob
"When I'm looking for upgrades, I always check Rebel first. And most of those times its the only site I look at before I make my purchase. I have purchased many things from Rebel from my RK lift, to grab handles. My bank statement is filled with Rebel Off Road debits :) I give Rebel my business because they are a standup company that gets everyone from Novice to expert. They ship their products quick and they stand by everything. Customer Service is awesome and they are always willing to provide expert advise along with their real life experiences. Way to go Rebel!! I am a life customer!"
Philip
"Taylor, Thanks for taking time with me on the phone today. I know it was a quick business transaction, but each shop feels different. Even over the phone. I really appreciate your honesty and hopefully you can get that product back out there for us. I look forward to doing business again in the future. Thanks again Taylor!"
Steve W
"I can't say enough good things about the crew at Rebel Off Road. Josh did a fantastic job on the install and Taylor kept me up to date with any issues that arose along the way. With fair pricing and fantastic work quality I have no reason to go anywhere else for work on my Jeep."
Brandon H
"I just wanted to write this e-mail to say how happy I was dealing with rebel. Roger Cornwell and Michael Rigo referred me to you guys when I told them I was looking to lift my jeep. This is my first time lifting a jeep so needless to say i was blind going into this and had numerous questions. I dealt with Taylor Blagdon throughout the whole process. He answered each and every question I had and pointed me in the right direction. Taylor helped me out every single step of the way from what to get for my jeep and why, all the way down to delivery. I will definitely spread the word about my positive experience with rebel and Taylor and no longer have the need to shop anywhere else. Thank you guys for everything,"
Mike
"I first heard of Rebel Off Road through my good friend Roger the owner of Abaddon. Roger introduced me to Taylor Blagdon and since then Taylor has helped with great customer service and advice for my build. Everytime I call upon Taylor for parts and or advise he is there willing to help and always pulls through. I admire that in a company and worker and proves that Rebel Off Road is the best Off Road Specialists out there. I will continue to be a loyal customer because of this and I have already converted many people out here on the east coast to be Rebel Heads and customer to Taylor and Rebel Off Road. Big thanks and see you on the trails!!!"
Jason
"I have been nothing but impressed with the guys at Rebel Off Road! Taylor has gone out of his way to help me build the vehicle I have always wanted. His customer service has been off the charts from the big questions to little ones and everything in between. I ordered everything to take my Jeep to the next level including Rebel's coilover system, long arm kit, front axle, and rear axle upgrades. I ran into some life changing events this week and will never forget how Taylor responded to my simple questions cause I was bored sitting in the hospital! I am proud to run Rebel decals on my Jeep! They will always have my business!"

"Yet another great order from Rebel Offroad with outstanding customer service helping to guide me to the choice that would best fit my needs."
James
"Another great review for this great company. These guys are professionals and I would recommend them to everyone. I got a lift kit and bigger wheels/tires for my stock 2012 Jeep Wrangler. The install took less than a day and everything was installed perfectly. No issues or concerns. Prior to seeing these guys, I went to Outlaw Offroad and got jerked around. They tried to sell me some crap for twice the price. These guys specialize in Jeeps and Taylor B. definitely pointed me in the right direction. I ended up not getting anything that Outlaw recommended to me and saved me about a grand. I love these guys. Service done: Teraflex 3'' suspension system with 4 flex arms. TF 9550 shocks. 16'' ATX Artillery Teflon coated wheels and 315/75/16 (35'') Nitto Terra Grappler tires."
Justin
"Ordered on Thursday after hours, received parts the following Thursday. Not a big deal except there was a weekend AND New Year's Day in those 7 days, which seems to imply they shipped the next day and didn't use the holidays as an excuse for slow shipping. Thanks guys."
Ray
"Just bought the Hellfire HID / LED fog light bundle and installed them without telling my wife. She texted me and asked what I did to the headlights, they were incredible. Had a friend over with their new 2013 Rubi and we did a headlight comparison out front of my house. They immediately came in the house and placed their order for the same package! Probably one of the best investments I have made."
Rob
"Rebel Offroad will definitely be getting more of my business and all of my friends! As a jeep and offroad enthusiast, one of the key things alot of people will agree with is that finding great customer service now a days is hard to find! Rebel offroad is fast, friendly, and go out of there way to make things right. I ordered the Hell Fire H.I.D. Headlamp kit along with the LED fog lamp upgrade. After installing my new headlamp bulbs, i proceeded to install my fog new fog lamp bulbs when i noticed they were the incorrect ones for the connectors. I e-mailed rebel offroad and within a day i had a response that new ones would be shipped. The wait time was almost none existant, no fee's and these ones fit! Being i live in Saskatchewan, Canada, it's hard to find a vendor that will ship, and thats speedy with the process. Painless experience, the kit is designed to work and perform excellent, plug and play wiring just about, and best of all i can now drive at night with no worries as i can see the road ahead of me. The difference is phenomenal from factory and at the price it's well worth it. Never been flashed by other drivers either. Once again, a happy customer and a pleasure to have done business and more to come. Cheers, rob"

"Ordered some flat fenders from Taylor, he made it easy, quick, and professional. Great bunch of folks to work with!"
James
"Ok so Im stuck in the middle of Afghanistan with nothing much to do but dream of how to make my rig a killer force to be reckoned with!! Time after time Rebel and most notable Taylor have came thru to help me with amazing deals, tech info and even just a normal jeepers conversion from time to time. If you ever here the phrase, "they treat you like family," well Rebel is def that place. "
Jeff
"Purchased J/W speaker headlights & fog lights for my jeep, one fog light didn't work. I called, Jason from rebel off road picked the phone up told him my issue, he sent a new fog light out that same day received within a week! Granted I'm stationed in Germany, great customer service! I recommend these headlights and fog lights there very stylish but very bright also! Well worth the $$$! Looking forward to purchasing more from the in the future!"

Jake W.
"My name is Jake and I recently placed an order with you guys on June 24th. Lately I have been having some bad luck with senders, (one package I ordered got lost and another was completely broken.) So when I ordered from you guys I was a little worried that something might happen again. I WAS WRONG! When I got my package today, I was more then pleased to see all the work you guys put in to your packaging, (things like the business card, cup holder, brochure) and not to mention my HID light kit was perfect and had great instructions! And also you guys did not send my package UPS free shipping like it said you would. You sent it USPS priority mail! It was here in no time! Now, I know its probably not a big deal to you guys, but I am still just so impressed at your website, and how fast and great the shipping was. Five stars all the way, and I will definitely be ordering my lift kit, and everything else from you guys, in the future. Keep up the good work! You've made my first jeep owning experience a good one! Thanks, Jake W. "
Scott D.
"Back in November 2011 I was wheeling my Jeep locally and ran into Chris in one of the Jeep JKs with the large Rebel logos. We chatted and he told me about the shop. Than at King of the Hammers and again at Tierra Del Sol I swung by their sponsored tent to talk about work I was planning with Bond. When it came time to finally commit to all my axle work I contacted Rebel Off Road even though I had other shops work on my jeep. Rebel specializes in Jeeps, they are out wheeling at the events I love to attend, and everyone I spoke with highly recommended Rebel for their honesty and quality of work. I felt very good about letting them do the work on my axles. While my jeep was being working on there were a lot problems I unknowingly caused that they discovered. Their man Taylor always called with solutions was willing to work with my demanding schedule. They even had Sandy working on the weekend on my brakes, fix an issue with the drive shaft that was a manufacturing defect, and communicating new issues to manufactures found on my Jeep for future product revisions. Now that everything is done my Jeep is a brand new beast! I'm sure there will be more work in the future and there's only one place I'm going, Rebel Off Road. "
Tommy M.
"I bought my JK in 2008. I started by thumbing through the quadratec catalog and buying things for my build. I had somebody local to my home build the car. It looked pretty good , but as I started rock climbing I realized I needed so much more. I was at the Big Bear Jeep Jamboree in 2009 and asked if anybody knew how I might obtain a certain sway bar disconnect that seemed to be not avaiable at the time for my JK.They turned me towards Bond at Rebel Off Road. Bond had the part I needed at my house within two days. I started asking Bond and his staff about things that would improve my JK and help me become better at rock climbing. They have been so helpful , honest and always there when I have needed them. My JK has taken on an incredible build and looks and rides way beyond any of my expectations. I have become friends with the Rebel family and actually go on rides with them. They not only build the jeep but are willing to be there on runs with you, something I truly respect and they certainly stand behind their work. As for my JK, well check it out under customer rigs, it is called Rebel Child named after my seventeen year old daughter. I couldn't be more proud of the build they gave me and more happy with the new off road friends I have gained through Rebel. They are so good that I live in Simi Valley and drive to Lake Forest which is over 1 1/2 hours to take my JK to them. Despite there are other options that I could go to in my local area. "
Jason
"I am in the military stationed in Bahrain. I have used Quadratec and Northridge for a few years. I was surfing the net looking for some specific items, ran across the Rebel site, and found much more than what I was looking for. Navigation is easy, and much better. I placed an order for quite a few items. I bought Teraflex flex arms, Fox shocks, synergy ball joints, etc. Jason at Rebel is awesome. I cannot say enough. USPS Priority shipped all my items, and for being in Bahrain, I got my stuff in 5 days. I did not have to blink before I had my stuff. The items were packaged well, and installed easily. I had some issues on my end that Jason found the answers to and emailed me numbers for flex arm adjustment like right away. Bottom line is Rebel Offroad is my new parts supplier now, and when I return to the USA. Jason has helped me so much, and I can't believe the level of customer service I have received. I have not enough words for everything they do. Thanks Jason, Rebel Offroad, and the crew there. You have earned a customer for life. Thank you for taking care of me above and beyond. Jason"
James
"Freaking awesome customer service from TAYLOR!!! Just got a rubi crawler and RIPP headers. He answered all my emails back and forth like we were textin!! Its hard to find such GREAT customer-buyer relations these days. I just wish all off-road companies were as great as Rebel...Ill def be spending more of my money here!! Thanks again Taylor!!"
Brett
"After many emails back and forth with Taylor we settled on a king coil over kit for the front of my 07 JK. Everything arrived packaged well and got it installed in one weekend. My JK sat really high and I didn't have any room for adjusment. So I called taylor and he had the whole crew go over my pics to determine the solution. A few days later I had new rate King springs shipped and they covered the cost! Now it sits perfect and oh man do I mean perfect! Rides like a dream and takes the boulders on at any speed, I've had alot of compliments on it so far. Great team work and excellent service!"
Mark
"You don't want to be a vampire and stand in front of my Jeep with the Hellfire headlights and Hellfire fog lights on. The true death. Great products and great service are a winning combination. Taylor is a real asset. Rebel Offroad are my go-to guys."
Brigitta
"Needed some new 37" KM2's and Taylor got the job done. Great customer service with emails keeping me up to date with the progress of my order. Great customer service and prices :)"
JocKy
"With every order I have had they have been delivered very fast...usually in just 4 days!!! Jason has always worked with me, even going above and beyond and letting me know that I had overlooked a discount and he quickly refunded. Shop nowhere else than REBEL!"
Jason Shearer
"I put a lift on my Jeep before Christmas and had a few problems, then I found out I would be taking a 2400 mile round trip to Washington in a few weeks and had to get the Jeep running right. E-mailed Taylor and he got me hooked up with an alignment, but then I started thinking about tires, another e-mail to Taylor and again he came through with an awesome deal on a set of 35s for my Jeep. Drove an hour to get the work done, and it was so worth it, Jeep feels and drives great, better than it did new. Thanks again to Taylor and the rest of the Rebel crew for a job well done."
Kendall
(Review of Taylor) "Found Rebel Off Road on JKFreaks.com. Called them up and they got me a heck of a deal on a Superchips Flashpaq and a set of Poison Spyder body armor. They must have answered 20 emails. They even did some extra footwork to find out about a part that will be available in the near future for the JK. Great bunch of guys to work with, I will be ordering from them again. Kendall."
Kelley Heiland
"Cant say enough about how great Taylor was to work with! The Hellfire headlight kit is awesome .Well worth the money...and the advice and support is priceless .You have a customer for life Just wish I lived near so I could stop by in person. Thanks again."
Jake Wolf
"Just got my order from you guys. Everything looks great, now just need a day to get everything on. Well deff. be ordering from you again. Thanks!! ."
Jake Kulik
"I 've been customizing and painting vehicles for years and have always bought and shopped around for the best price possible no matter what the product was. It wasn't until tonight though that I found a vendor that truly in my opinion went above and beyond what is asked for from them. Jason @Rebel Off Road hooked me up with several items that I was shopping for with such a tremendous deal that I stood there absolutely FLOORED at what he did. And his sense of humor and truthfulness is what sets him apart from the pack. HE'S a REAL person that goes out and works everyday and is willing and able to take the time to talk to another human being and make them feel reassured about the product they're buying and the person they're buying it from."
Roger
"I am grateful that Rebel Offroad exists. They have been tremendously instrumental in helping me create my ultimate Jeep, RumbleBee. Rebel was the source for my Rock Krawler 3.5" Triple Threat Pro Lift, My Recon front & rear Coilovers and now my Or-Fab corner armor. Bond and Jason have been a fantastic source for advice and equipment."
Nima
"Bond and Sandy are awesome. I come to them with broken stuff and they send me home fixed up. Some other places give me excuses and want to sell me junk that won't fix my problems. These guys take better care of my rig than me."
Bobby U.
"I just wanted to give a big thanks to Jason for working with me on the Poly C-Gussets i just ordered from Rebel Offroad today..This was the first time buying from Rebel and I will buy again..Very cool Guy and great pricing."
Sean R.
"Gotta give a huge shout out to Jason at Rebel Off Road. He hooked me up majorly on a set of JW Speaker headlights and a Corsa dual exhaust! He is a great guy and fun to talk to. He really knows jeep stuff. It's great to be able to spread the love around a little bit."
Rick V.
"Big thing is how impressed I am with Rebel. There shop was filled with rigs, some from big name companies and they made me feel like I was the only customer and a VIP. Hats off to Jason and the guys at Rebel though. Highly recommend them if your in the area. "
Jonathan
"Jason was awesome to deal with and they are shipping today, I placed the order at 4:00!!!"
KiokenJK
"Jason and Bond at Rebel are excellent to deal with."
Dave
"Had the jeep down to Rebel Off road yesterday getting some nit noid stuff addressed because the pansies at Chrysler would not touch the suspension or aftermarket skids. So the boys at Rebel stepped up to the plate and had me all peaked and tweaked in a matter of minutes. (Rebel also had me in the next day) That is maintenance minutes, which those of us that have worked in any type of maintenance capacity know that these minutes are normally 3-5 times longer than a "normal" minute. Hats off to the Rebel Team for once more looking for solutions and not excuses. Not to mention taking care of my rig in a timely fashion by sliding their current workload around to take care of an out of towner. Also had the smart doors installed while at Rebel. Oh those things are nice. Gotta re-learn how to open and close the door again but they are so worth it. Highly recommend mod to any jeeper, especially those that live in high wind areas. "
Wayne
"Just ordered my Synergy heavy duty ball joints for my JK from Rebel Off Road moments ago. Jason was very helpful and got me handled in no time, he stated parts will ship out today Check out there "Rigs" section there are some bad a$$ rides there. To bad they are so far away, would love to visit their shop. Happy Holidays! "
Steve Mcbrien
"A HUGE "thank you" to Jason & Rebel for the continued support, infinite patience with the million questions, and all around great guy! The product knowledge and the details of the pros and cons of each item is commendable. Jason has spent hours with me on the phone over the past many months. Every time I call and usually buy from Rebel, it is an excellent experience on great products. The relationships built by Jason and Rebel go beyond the sale of one item. Stay tuned for much more details to come!!"
Jim Stepkoski
"Great product information and knowledge. Listens to customers needs wants and price points. Never pushy and in fact slowed me down on a purchase to ensure it was the right purchase. I will utilize them again in the future."
Donell Hall
"Everything was great thanks for the outstanding service."
Brett Woods
"No one knows High End JK Builds Better "
Jeremy Morris

"GOOD JOB, REBEL!"
Jon Rauch
"I guess I've had some pretty good luck with my orders recently. Just got off the phone after donating some money for parts and had a really good experience with Jason. Very knowledgeable about the proper parts for what I need and took the time to talk to me about his line of work and how we as jeep owners and vendors are all in this together to have fun and enjoy being part of a vast Jeep owners community. Thanks again Jason!!!!! "

"Brings back memories of last year when Rebel corrected a couple things another shop did on my lift. Also, most shops may answer your questions or comment on ideas you may have for your Jeep, but Rebel takes the time to show you. That personal touch makes a big difference. "
Jr
"Rebel is your one stop shop. Bond and the crew know how to take care of you! Not only have I developed a relationship with the boys at rebel... I've made new friends! Steak's are on me!!!!!"
Panos Ger
"Without Bond's help and advice everything would be impossible for us , since we are so far from US. we ve got the best help that anyone can get!! Bond you are the man!!! thank you so much, and don't forget, Greece is waiting for you!!!"
Taxiarchis Adamopoulos
"We would like to say a special thanks to Bond for all his help and the good communication we had during the last couple of months. We really appreciate that! Thanks Bond!"
Chris Brock
"Another Rebel fan here. I'm a new JK owner and had my lift done elsewhere (won't mention the name) and my Jeep wasn't driving the way I thought it should. I was told "Thats the way a Jeep drives" and sent on my way. I took it to Bond and they noticed things right off the bat. I ended up having them fix the problems, realign it and it drives perfect now. Also bought my Poison Spyder bumper and Powerplant winch from them along with a few other goodies. Great pricing, customer service and everything was completed on time. All of my JK purchases are going to them from now on. Thanks Bond! "
TJ Owner
"I noticed a picture of what turned out to be Jason's (works at Rebel Offroad) Jeep and ordered a set for myself. I had a pair of these welded to my Rockhard rear bumper on my TJ. They are of excellent quality and hold the Rotopax very securely. I like the fact that they store the Rotopax in an area this is generally unused space and keeps them out of sight of thieves. While the Rotoax only hold 2 gallons each, that 4 gallons is about 1/4 tank in my Jeep (plenty). I have to say I was also very impressed with their customer service. I was headed out of town and they went above and beyond to get these back from their fabricator in time for them to be installed before I left. I believe how you treat your customers says a lot about you and your business. They were very nice to my wife when she visited and and left her with a great first impression. I also noticed they put up a few pictures of my install here http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=951978"

"Rebel (Bond & Jason) has definitely earned my business. I'll look to them first for most everything from now on."
DaK
"Due to an oversight on my part while having my lift installed I did not see the need to upgrade my steering stabilizer. After wheeling my rig for a couple of weeks, attempting to pass big rigs and driving in the high desert wind, I now see the error of my ways... 1 5 minute phone call with Jason late and by late I mean around 2-2:30 PM and it was decided a Bilstein SS should be ordered and was. Here is the amazing/great stuff--- the part was at my door that Monday before noon. Now if that isn't customer service NOTHING is... Thanks Jason and the rest of the Rebel team. "
Richard
"It's great to have a shop close by that knows how to sell to your specific needs. Not to mention the fast turn around time on everything I have ordered. I go nowhere else for repairs. Run it , break it, take it to Rebel."
Spencer Dinsmoor
"My 2010 Jeep JK Unlimited wouldn't be the same without the Rebel treatment. They didn't sell me a single part till they sat down and listened to my actual 4x4 needs. My Jeep is now exactly how I want it with no wasted time or money. I'm now planning on adding a camping rooftop tent and taking my Jeep to a whole new level."
Delano, AKA Pluke the 2
"Rebel Offroad Team, I just wanted to say Thank You guys very much for the work you've done on my jeep. Very nice welds, locker switches we're wired up perfectly, the air hoses are ran along the frame where nothing will tag or snatch it. Innovative way to zip-tie them along the hard lines and very intuitively giving enough slack to accommodate for the suspension articulation. The welding was done very smoothly, accurate, and in a slow steady pace. Both welds are identical on the driver and passenger side. The lockers have yet to be "Wheeled" but they both turn on and off and are beautifully wired to led on when the lights are turned on. The gears are running smoothly and I couldn't be anymore grateful for the money spent on gears. Easily said without hesitation that the gears were a better bang for the dollar than the: Superchips, CAI, MBRP Exhaust, and Throttle Body spacer. Last and not least, thank you guys for going beyond my expectations from beginning to end, getting the parts I needed next day, from installation to end product and doing other little things like zip tieing the brake lines to the ABS lines when never even mentioning a thing about them. Thanks for the full service under carriage service without ever mentioning anything about it. Cheers, Delano. "
VIAIR Corporation
"We contracted Rebel Off Road to build our 2011 VIAIR TRV JK show vehicle. The Guys at Rebel have been nothing but the best. The Rebel Coil over kit has to be the best performing Jeep suspension that we've ever 4 wheeled with. VIAIR Corporation gives Rebel Offroad an A+ or a perfect 10 on service, knowledge & friendliness. Thanks again Guys... VIAIR WWW.VIAIRCORP.COM "

Paul Remillong
I had purchased the complete big brake system from you earlier in the year (dont know if you remember or not) But I have been through the Drummond Island Jeep Jamboree since then and I can say that I was totally impressed with its performance! There were a couple of incredibly steep climbs up and down, most of those in our group slid or rolled down the steeps, but for me there was one spot in particular where I was the only one in the group that was able to use the brakes to stop myself like a fly stuck to paper at a wickedly steep angle, The brakes performance was absolutely astounding! Great product! I would and did recommend you to all that asked!
CW Jordy
It's so difficult to find a company that is willing to take a little bit of a hit in order to show appreciation for our troops. When I do find one, I bring them every spare dime I have for my vehicle. You guys are GREAT, Jason was wonderful to work with, and I only have about another 9 grand on my wishlist, but I expect you guys will see pretty much all of it!
Firefighter Emt
City: Carrollton, GA, rebel offroad i have to say has some of the best customer service. i sent them an e-mail asking about their brake kit and by the next day they are calling me to answer any questions i may of had. now thats customer service! ive never had anyone call me to answer questions. its always a bs email that usually doesnt even answer what you asked and you usually feel stupider after you read their response. jam up guys getting my tax refund back in a few days and i will def be giving you business on the brakes. i need them! its getting kinda unsafe for me and esp now i have a son i def need those replaced. but again keep up the excellent work. even if your kit wasnt what i needed i would still come to yall first to see if you have what i need first just because of the customer service i got from yall.
DSJK
City: Jacksonville, FL. I had a great experience with Bond
George Kane
City: Long Beach, CA. I call him Bondini, because he magically makes the problems go away. First off the delivery service is great, he will send his guy to pick up and return your Jeep and for little jobs it is back the same day. I had my 2007 JK in for a nut and bolt checkup after running the Rubicon trail, fortunately his mechanic Sandy really checks the vehicle thoroughly and found that my Poly Performance front axle housing had cracked. Sheeet I thought, the Claw Hammer run was in two days. So it was Bondini to the rescue he called Poly and convinced them to send their welder to his shop and they welded it right up, amazingly cool they were able to weld it on a Friday afternoon! But the repair was finished late Friday and the Claw Hammer run was Saturday morning, so what does Bondini do? He sends his guy Tolls deliver it to me in the desert Saturday Morning!! When you go on runs with his group it is always a fun time and if you break down they will help you. I had a power steering hose break and they got it bandaged up enough on the trail to drive back to camp and from there his mechanics fixed it so I could drive home!
Heather Flaherty
City: Mission Viejo, CA. Finding a 4x4 shop can be difficult. Especially for a girl. I remember when I took my Jeep to a tire place, with stock tires, and asked about getting something beefier. He looked at them, and said "Why? These are fine". And let me drive away. At a Beers and Gears, I was fortunate to meet Bond and Sandy with RebelOffroad. Recently, in the rains, I was in an accident that took out the front of all my underparts. And when it came time to do what needed to be done, he didn't "sell" to me. He worked with what I felt MY needs were for the trail. We shared and combined our individual lists. We compromised. I got what I wanted. And he made sure they were practical. I am so happy and fortunate to have someone in the South OC to trust.
John Rocha
City: Southern CA. George is absolutely right on jumping through hoops, Bond helped me build my JK in 25 days, try finding a shop that can do that.....checkout my build here on jko, all the parts I used could never be ordered an installed in that time.
Rick Larsen
City: Dana Point, CA. I trust them with my rig. Bond and his team have gone out of their way to help me. I think they do good work, and as for me great customer service. Bond has also talked me out of some of my crazy ideas.
REDNECKJK
i was very impressed with Bond. he didn't try to talk me into anything. i asked questions and he provided straight answers and to my surprise he even agreed with my build plan except he convinced me to go with the ARB instead of the e-locker and he did that by answering my questions, not salesmanship. i liked that. wish i was close enough for his folks to do the wrenching. maybe i am jaded because of having to clean up the mess left by salesmen, but i really appreciated Bond's sales approach. " answer me a couple of questions" and "this is what i suggest and why". now if i could get him on a plane with his toolbox
Randall Davis
City: Lake Forest, CA. The Rebels have done great work on all THREE of my recent Jeeps. And each time they have seemed to deliver a better level of service than the previous.
Striker3
City: Joshua Tree, CA. Awesome customer service. Very quick to answer questions whether it is online or on the phone and corrects any mistakes to the customer's satisfaction. I would trust them to do any work that I may need done.
TANYA
City: Simi Valley, CA. Again you can't go wrong with Rebel
TEXASKEV
City: Austin, TX. Top notch customer service! The product that I bought from them is working out great on my buiild and I'll use them again.
Tom Armstrong
City: Chino, CA. My '06 Wrangler LJ developed a "death wobble" that was growing worse over time. Jeep's Technical Service Bulletin on this issue basically states try this, then that, and then something else. I decided to let Bond and the Rebel Team put their expertise to work. They quickly diagnosed the issues and performed a speedy and cost-effective repair No more wobble. Thank you Rebel Off Road!
ZJR
City: South Florida. Top notch. I drove across the country and he was the one that I let work on my Jeep, and I recommend him to ALL! I usually only let my mechanic and myself touch my Jeep, unless I get an oil change for less than supplies cost (and I will stop doing that soon too).
Rebel's goal is to provide the off road and truck enthusiast community with the best customer service by providing honest, accurate advice and providing the best off road parts in the industry.
We do more than just sell 4x4 parts and accessories, we install and use them! Why are we closed on weekends? Because we are on the trails of the USA running our rigs hard and taking notes.
The promise we make to you is to provide you with the knowledge and parts that will get you from the trailhead to the road home.
